Question
EXERCISE 1 MUTATION
Work in a small group or alone to complete this exercise. In Lab 2, Exercise
8, you determined the amino acid sequence for the following strand of
DNA:
AGCAATC CGTCTTGG
TCGTTAGGCAGAACC
That strand has mutated. It is now
AGCAACCCGTCTTGG
TCGTTGGGCAGA ACC
Use your knowledge of mutation and protein synthesis to answer the
following questions.
1. What mutation has occurred?
2. Will this mutation have a real effect? Why or why not? (Hint: You may
want to try Exercise 10 from Lab 2 again, using the mutated DNA
strand to make the mutated protein.)
